Product description
Tomatin Cù Bòcan is an experimental whisky from the Highland distillery Tomatin, made from slightly smoky barley malt and distilled in limited batches each winter. Cù Bòcan means 'ghost dog' in Gaelic. According to legend, the inhabitants of the area around Tomatin were haunted by a ghost dog that dissolved into blue smoke and disappeared over the Highland moors. Each bottling of Cù Bòcan is matured in different cask combinations to bring out the exceptional flavours in the Single Malt. The winter edition 'Creation 7' combines Pineau des Charentes Rouge casks and virgin oak casks with the lightly peated Tomatin distillate. Pineau des Charentes Rouge is a French liqueur wine that tastes sweet and fruity, with flavours of red berries such as cherries, raspberries, blackberries and cassis. The smoky base character combined with the barrel ageing creates notes of rhubarb, custard and sweet oak spice.

The Distillery: Tomatin
Tomatin has been a rising star among the Scottish distilleries since the beginning of the millennium. The Highland distillery was the biggest Scottish distillery in the 1970, but the quality of the Whisky wasn’t high regarded. Ups and downs followed and after been new positioned from 2000 onwards Tomatin grew to be one of the most reputable Scottish Whisky brands worldwide.

Abgang:
Kommentar: Vielleicht ist der Pineau-Fassanteil hier nur recht klein. Hatte mir etwas mehr fruchtige Süße erwartet, die der Abfüllung sehr gut getan hätte. Schade drum, hat durchaus Potenzial, MIschungsverhältniss der beiden Fassreifungen stimmt für meinen Geschmack leider nicht.
